How to Install a Light bar. In this episode of Project Night Light, I show you how to wire an LED light bar properly using a relay. I go though every step so after watching this you will know how to wire any auxiliary light you want. At the end of the episode I show how insanely bright the light bar is!

Can you do atutorial on reverse camera install please
Big big difference.

There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
Does this work for multiple rock lights not just one light? I’m guessing I would need to eventually get all the negative and positive cables coming from the rocklights to one single positive and one single negative cable.
Awesome project tutorial! thanks
Could you use the fuse boxes for the relay and avoid using the tap?
Is it safe to have multiple light bar wires running to the battery ?
Why all red wires through the boot? Did you label them for the future? How can you tell which is which?
Quality video & explanations.
That was long part 3
Night light? Lol you mean the sun? Or plane landing gear lights? Lmao good vid!

I wouldn't say I have a learning difficulty 😂 but let's just say I'm more of a hands on person you show me how it's done I'll try my best to replicate it. This bloke, really breaks it down it's great leaves no room for erra, I appreciate the videos 💯👍 makes life easy for the home (DIYS) keep up the good work mate.
BEAUTIFUL
Lumens?
great instructor
I’m confused why you still put the power directly to the battery, did you tap the fuse box for your power source?
Have you thought about putting a pwr distribution block if I put one in it's a red/ Black to battery then you add your wires to the block and not the batt keeps everything nice and clean
When I put my reverse side lights on my pick up I taped into the Rev wire in the rear light assy and put the light assy back into place.
So when I shifted into reverse my lights came on
Lol you don't need 2 cables for 1 switch if you use relays.
You can bridge positive between the switches. You just need 5 cables for 4 switches
Great video.
ima go put one on my civic 💯
Since some people like to drive with light bars turned on while on the highway and back roads, the proper way to wire them is by running power from the high beam circuit in series with the switch powering the relay coil. This way the light bar can only be powered up when the high beams are on and will go off with the high beams. The switch still allows the light bar to be off when not being used in conjunction with the high beams. This is actually legally mandatory in some places.
So it’s necessary yo have 2 fuses, the one from the switch (between the switch and the power for or) and the one between the relay and battery?
@26:21 WOOWWW! Good Job.
Thank you chris for the work you put into making these videos. I know it takes a lot of time. I’m going to attempt this installation now that I have they know how from you.
Sweet
